The world's most powerful jobber does it again. It's loving crazy that a dude who would have lost his second fight in a lesser story just took out the two most "anime main character"-ish fighters in his bracket.

I don't want to get hurt again like I did with Adam, but I believe in Kuroki.

He could even defeat Roman Reigns.

Hey lets not get hyperbolic here, kuroki would know better than to intrude on the Big Dog's yard

Seriously though if Gensai makes it to the finals somehow I have hard time imagining Ohma actually beating him.

We've got Sen vs a Fang next. We haven't seen the resolution to Fang vs Fang match so things could shake up a bit

Old Fang is probably gonna job to let Current Fang show off some new ability or resolve.

Also I'm glad Rei figured out a counter-ish but still got SHOT THRU THE HEART, AND HE'S TO BLAME

Castle Kuroki has mostly stood against people so far whose fighting style regarded around specializing on 1-2 tricks or special moves. Really curious how a fight between him and someone with a much broader style goes.

how old are the fangs supposed to be? i'd chekc the wiki but probably have the first sentence state who beats whichever fang it is because it was written off the raws

I'm not 100% sure we've been told how long this Fang has even been a Fang

I was thinking more along the lines of a power up or an injury. Not a late game switch out

You're right, I don't think we'll reveal a bigger bad at this point

Not sure on Agitoh specifically, but old fang is 43 and the bodyguard with the mask is 37, so probably 40ish for current fang.

For Gensai, it's specifically that the way he is designed - a huge bear of a man with magnificent beard, and the way he is introduced - a powerful and well-respected martial arts master with no real issues to overcome or connection to a plot point, pretty much scream that after showing how strong he is, he will then lose to some like Setsuna or Rei (or Ohma) to establish that they are the new hotness. Everything around him just scream "textbook jobber character". Except, instead he just massacres everyone without breaking a sweat, hence the whole "most powerful jobber" joke.

The true reason Rohito wants Gensai as a master is so he can shotgun sodas using only his hands.

Gensai grew his beard so that he could hide the blush on his cheeks every time he goes "I'm not your master, but you can stand there and watch while I practice my stances, b-baka".

The Agito loss is the one where he got his ankle completely hosed up I think. Probably a much harsher fight then whatever went on with Sen.

I'm more shocked that her dad is Power company man. And how disappointed he is in her not taking over the family business and instead becoming a pimp. But her dad is super evil so I don't blame her not taking over the electric company.

I wonder if Wakatsuki already tried to get revenge on Sen and the guy didn't bother to show up. That would probably be enough to discourage anyone.
